Okay so I dont have the equipment for the test load, but I do had some info on the driver board. Obviously there is a voltage regulator onboard if only for the micro LED's on /off indicators. There is also this Driver/opamp IC :Digi-Key - AD8052ARZ-ND (Manufacturer - AD8052ARZ) Which...

So I guess I could just try it out with one 18650 and whatever happens happens. I suppose as long as i make sure the currnet initially is set low what could go wrong? If the board only outputs 2 volt and the M140 needs 5v and the driver doesnt boost the voltage than might be a dim beam/dot huh ...

I have an old host with 532 driver that was putting out 2.9 amps max. It has a pot that I could lower down the amps to say 1.8A max for a well heat sinked 445. Is it this easy or does a 532 driver work differently ? For 60 bucks I would go from a dead greenie to a new blue...

Okay , so finally after some issues in my other posts my problem got resolved and they did send me replace my lasers/modules. I must say LPKATH did try very hard to fix things and also offered me a coupon code. I think this will also work for anyone until mar 31st and is supposed to be the last...

Well me too, in fact I have had such problems with them, and they dont care or respect their customers. They are loosing much business I suppose from all the negative feedback. But they would rather be cheap and not spend money to make their clients happy so that they get more positive feedback...

Did you order yet ? I Just recieved a PLC-Pro 400mw and 3x BE . I will do a review in the next few days/weeks. But I can tell you more in the meantime PM me and I will give you my phonenumber we can talk more in detail.

Oh and by the way ... they suck!

I would probably go with the lazerer option. My understanding is that they really stand behind their products and accept pay pay which I am told has a easeier dispute resolution program than credit card comapnies. Not like Lasersman.com which is a horrible company. If anything goes wrong after...

I have bought several green lasers from cheap to a few hundred dollars. In your price range if you live in the US I would spend $20-30 at frys electronics. This way you can return it if you need to. The are a few chinees companies I recommend for cheap is Lazerer.com. Lasersman.com :gun: I...

I would look carefully at the company you buy from. I have a few lasers and have had good experiance with O-like and Jet Lasers. Yes they are more expensive than a company like LASERSMAN who I will NEVER recommend. They are selling a so-called <200 mw green laser for $24+ dollars. Of course...

:mad::mad:I currently am having a negative experiance with lasersman, in returning a defective item I recieved 6-7 weeks ago. Looks like I have run out of patience, after getting continous run around. Unfornunatly I have to file a credit card dispute before the time for filing has run out. I...

Thanks Sigurthr but really only your last sentence was related to my question. So what is multimode emission ? I have other much higher power lasers and am just screwing around. However the diiference in power is quiite noticable on this laser after modding.

Hi, Can someone tell me why I get dot scatter. The lenses are new and clean. This happens after potmoding a 3.6v 360ma (measured at tail) to 600ma. If I crank it up to 750ma scatter occurs almost instantly where as at 500-600ma it takes perhaps 5-10 seconds. No scatter at 360ma. But then of...

HI ASh, Thanks, I did try a 3 volt battery but nothing gives.... I tries to measure the diode resistance with a DMM , but got no reading either. So I took the whole thing apart down to the diode itself. Just for fun. It just doesnt work anymore .... for sure now! HA Ha! I guess its f*$*ed...

Thanks Bluefan. I will give it a go. I wanted to make sure that I bypassed the driver because I was not sure it was working properly. I am afraid my laser might be dead..... Vrolijk kerstfeest en groetjes uit Los Angeles

Hi, I am still trying to figure out whats going on with my laser. I Would like to test the diode to rule out that its dead. Does anyone know what voltage this diode runs at ? What about current does that matter when I just try to connect the + and the - with the correct voltage ? Here is the...

The laser is not slowly fading out, it is slowly fading in at startup and sometimes flickering before it reaches full 2/3's to full power . There it remains stable uintil turned off. After a 30 sec cooling periode, When turning back on again it starts all over again.

I should have been more explicit. I didnt bypass the thermister i infact removed it completly. I did measure the resistance at different temps and established that it is working. It lowers resistance as it gets hotter. So if I leave it out, the driver will "think" that it is cold. I agree...

It look exactly like this one Firedragon-III 532nm 350mW Flashlight Style Elite Green Laser Pointer Kit (Certified Power Guaranteed) I bypassed the probe/thermister but it makes no difference. Startup delay with flickering until amperage reaches around 1,4 on the tail cap then increases to...

So I ended up disconnecting the probe which makes no difference. Now sometime when switching on it may take longer and/or flicker slightly and erraticly. Once its goin its fine. Wonder about a fauiling MOSFET ???
